Baby Tips for New Parents

The Diaper Fit Tip New Parents Don’t Know

Ensuring a good fit for your baby’s diaper is essential for comfort and preventing leaks. Here’s a simple tip: instead of closing the diaper tabs horizontally, angle them diagonally downwards.

Why It Works:

  • Better Fit: Angling the tabs creates a more secure and comfortable fit.

  • Prevents Leaks: A snug fit around the legs and waist helps prevent leaks.

  • Comfort: Reduces the chances of the diaper being too tight or causing discomfort.

Additional Diapering Tips

  • Check for Gaps: After securing baby’s diaper, run your fingers around the edges to check for gaps.

  • Fluff the Ruffles: Ensure the leg ruffles are fluffed outwards to contain any leaks.

  • Try Sizing Up: If baby’s diaper is still leaking, try sizing up to see if that reduces leaking.
